“Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”
Words by George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) — Playwright and critic, Nobel laureate.
About this quote
This statement argues that true growth requires flexibility of thought. External improvement cannot happen if people remain stubbornly attached to old beliefs. To reform society or better oneself, one must be willing to reconsider existing opinions when presented with new evidence. Rigid thinking traps people in the past, whereas open-mindedness acts as the necessary catalyst for meaningful personal and collective transformation.
Written by the Irish playwright and critic George Bernard Shaw, this line appears in his 1944 book, Everybody's Political What's What?, a treatise on politics and social reform published late in his life.
People often hang this print in a home office or study to foster open-mindedness and creative problem-solving.
